PADI is the


most recognised dive training organisation worldwide


with 29 million certifications and counting


As a PADI Divemaster, you’ll supervise and organise diving activities. Divemaster jobs include assisting scuba Instructors with classes, leading guided dives and working on liveaboards. Whether you want to work at a faraway dive destination or close to home at a local dive shop, you’ll have the ability to earn a living doing what you love most.


If you’re a PADI Divemaster and you want to take your love of scuba to the next level, you’re ready for the PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC). After you successfully complete all IDC components, and have at least 100 logged dives, you will qualify for the Instructor Examination (IE), a two-day assessment to demonstrate what you have learned.


Upon successful completion of the examination, you’ll be a certified PADI


Open Water Scuba Instructor and ready to start teaching PADI


core courses. As a PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor, you’ll earn the respect from both student divers and peers as you share your passion for diving and live the life you’ve dreamed about.


During your training, you’ll learn how to conduct PADI core courses, gaining confidence under the eye of a seasoned PADI


Course Director. You’ll build


on your dive theory knowledge, role- model watermanship, rescue skills and leadership abilities by learning how to teach in confined water, in the classroom and in open water.


There is also the optional step to become an Assistant Instructor (AI), which offers the chance to assist with classes and help you progress towards becoming a PADI Instructor.
